Section 82: Expanding the Army
"Haha, you don't have to worry. I'm just kidding. If someone really can bring him here, he can be considered a veteran in the Party and the country. Now I won't say much. From tomorrow on, I will be planning to select the talents I need from the hundreds of thousands of troops of the security regiment." Seeing Master Mao with a look of a grudge, Sun Liren didn't say much.
In fact, Sun Liren is not bad-hearted. He just wants to remind our Master Mao. In this way, it is better not to say it in the future. It is a joke to put it in the unintentional person. If it is placed in some people, this is evidence to attack you in the future, and it is ironclad evidence, just like you can make the decision in the party and country. With more and more contributions now, the great achievements will not be impossible in the future. If it arouses the dissatisfaction of Principal Jiang, then Mao Yuanshan's good days will come to an end.
It seems that this guy is different from what he said in later history textbooks. He is not as old-fashioned as the legendary ones, but it is still a little funny.
There was no idea how the Chahar government was going to form an armored regiment, and there were also reporters taking photos of the armored regiment training. Fortunately, they were intercepted by the Chahar intelligence department in the end. Otherwise, the batch of photos would have to be left out, and Mao Yuanshan's name would have really spread throughout the country.
In fact, Mao Yuanshan is not afraid now. We already have our own forces, with hundreds of thousands of troops. What's there to be afraid of? The most important thing is to be afraid of Americans. If Americans see this photo, they will definitely know that they were plagiarized, but their weapons are still on the design drawings. We have already formed an army here. What would he think?
Chahar's current intelligence department is developing, and Monkey has become the Minister of Intelligence Department without permission.
This guy must have been interested in this before. He has arrested dozens of Japanese spies in the past two months, and for interrogation, this guy has also learned from the Qing Gang. Generally speaking, the intelligence department is currently developing healthily and orderly.
Among the clone soldiers, there are also very good at spy types. Although monkeys are the old men who started their own business, they are still not as good as clone soldiers in terms of trust, so the deputy minister of the intelligence department is clone soldiers.
In addition, it is the current air force.
After several wars, Mao Yuanshan attached more importance to the development of the air force, just like encircling and annihilation of the 70th Mixed Brigade, directly knocking out the Japanese devils' planes. He was like a tiger without teeth. If the Japanese air force continuously supported them, it would be impossible to completely annihilate them.
Moreover, if the Japanese devils threw all the bombs on the security team's position, the security team's casualties would definitely not be like this. The battalion in Zhanggu Town might have been blown to ashes.
Therefore, it is necessary to fully develop the Air Force.
Now I have the rank of brigade commander.
In addition to having a large number of cloned soldiers, the amount of oil exchanged has also risen sharply. It used to be able to exchange 300 tons per day, but now it can be exchanged for 3500 tons per day. According to Mao Yuanshan's idea, it should be able to exchange 3000 tons per day. I don't know why there is an extra 500 tons.
100,000 tons of gasoline per month is definitely enough.
You should know that during World War II, the Germans could only produce four or five million tons of coal-based oil every year.
Now, the situation of the Chahar army using oil is much less than that of the Germans.
During this period, the first aviation school was established for high-quality aviation.
Although there are only 150 students now, it is a good start. In half a year, they will become qualified pilots and fly into the sky in a year to realize their wishes.
Nowadays, cloned soldiers, plus the pilots in reality, there are already thousands of people in Mao Yuanshan who can fly planes into the sky, but not everyone can drive fighters among the thousands. Only 30% of people can fly fighters, and the remaining part is used to fly bombers or transport planes.
Because there are no other models of aircraft unlocked, they can only fly bf109.
Mao Yuanshan formed two flight regiments this time.
Each regiment has two flight brigades under its jurisdiction. Each brigade has three flight squadrons under its jurisdiction, each flight squadron has three flight squadrons under its jurisdiction, and each flight squad has six aircraft under its jurisdiction.
There are more than 600 aircraft in total, and more than a dozen military or simple military airports have been built in various parts of the Chahar region.
Of course, all this was done secretly. There was no such thing as before spy satellites in this era. If you want to collect intelligence, you need to rely on manpower. As long as people cannot infiltrate, these news cannot be spread. The Japanese did not know that there would be such a powerful air force in the Chahar area. If they knew that there was such a powerful air force, the combat plan they formulated now would be modified and large-scale modifications.
Gao Zhihang is also the aviation commander of the Chahar region.
Leng Feng as the leader of the Aviation Group.
As the leader of the Second Aviation Regiment, it was rare for female pilots to come later in that era, and it was even rarer in this era. However, Zhao Shan became the leader of the Second Aviation Regiment entirely relied on her own ability and had nothing to do with his father who was a veteran of the Party and the State.
At the beginning, many pilots were also very unhappy about a woman being their leader, because in their opinion, if he hadn't had a father of a party and state veteran, how could he be the leader of the aviation regiment? But later, when they got along with each other, they also found that the leader was really capable. Although he was a woman, no one in the entire regiment had better combat skills than him in the air, and he also had innate advantages over others in command and arrangement, as if the leader was tailor-made for him.
Because the security regiment cannot be upgraded now, Mao Yuanshan can only divide the 30 security regiments into three combat clusters.
The eastern combat cluster is also the most important combat cluster, with 11 security regiments under it, mainly defending against attacks from the Kwantung Army and the North China Garage Army.
The northern combat military region is a secondary combat cluster, with four security regiments mainly defending the north, threats from Mongolia and the Soviet Union.
The military region built in the south has three security regiments under the smallest combat cluster.
The remaining 12 security regiments are the reserve corps.
Except for the Preparatory Corps, other security groups basically have initial combat capabilities, and more than half of the people in the army come from the battlefield, and their combat effectiveness is much stronger than the Preparatory Corps.
The three combat aircraft groups are each equipped with two artillery regiments, which must achieve absolute suppression in terms of heavy firepower. If it weren't for the fact that there were too few qualified soldiers now, Mao Da Shao even wanted to match three armored regiments to the three combat aircraft groups.
In terms of people's livelihood, due to the implementation of agricultural tax reduction and exemption, farmers in the country have started working for a year, and this year is still quite good. In autumn, they will usher in a bumper harvest season.
Regarding the issue of agricultural tax, a document issued by the Ministry of Finance of the Central Government stated that the issue of Chahar's abolishing agricultural tax does not meet the legal requirements and asked them to take back the order. However, Mao Yuanshan later told the central government that if the agricultural tax was to be restored, we would have all 30 security groups supported by the state.
Suddenly, the central government could not afford the additional 500,000 troops. You should know that the current 30 security groups are only paid 400,000 yuan per month. No one cared about the extra money.
Because of this problem, Minister Song of the Ministry of Finance was scolded by the principal again. Don’t make things difficult for the soldiers of the frontline anti-Japanese war because of these trivial matters. Besides, Chahar’s land is not very good in a poor province. How much money can the agricultural tax have? It is obvious that you are randomly giving them eye drops.
Other bigwigs of the Party and the country also felt very despised by Minister Song's move.
The Japanese saw that Chahar was a tough guy, so they kept it aside, but they were not so easy to deal with other party-state and military forces.
History still deviated from its original direction. The battle in the Yangtze River Delta region had not started yet, and the battle in the North China region started again. The Japanese gathered the forces of three divisions and began to attack the Central Plains region.
The troops of these three divisions seemed to be suddenly powerful. They had no effect when facing the Chahar army, but when facing other Chinese troops, they seemed to be lions out of the cage.
In half a month, the three divisions occupied about one province's territory and defeated the army of more than 20 divisions of the Central Army's local army.
When Mao Yuanshan looked at this battle report, he felt helpless. He originally thought that he had sold so many weapons and ammunition, and the combat effectiveness of these troops would be stronger, but he didn't expect that in the end he would still be like this. At the beginning, these warlords were also ridiculing the Jinsui Army. Now they are not as good as the Jinsui Army.
How many people in the Jinsui Army retreated after seeing the Japanese? You people started to retreat without seeing the Japanese. They even robbed the people when they left. Such an army was really hard to say.
Fortunately, because the Japanese devils' logistics did not keep up, they stopped their own pace after occupying these territories and carried out their white terror rule in the occupied areas.
